    Just upgraded to Pro, selected Hide Title after adding the player to my post but the title doesn’t go away. Trying to make the player as minimalist as possible.

    Thanks.

    Hi there,

    Thanks for using Podcast player pro.

    1. Hide title option will only hide podcast main title from the header.
    2. We need to use some custom CSS to remove title from all single episodes. Just use following steps to remove episdoe title from all single episode players.

    1. Go to WordPress Dashboard > Appearance > Customize
    2. Look for “Additional CSS” in left sidebar. Click on it.
    3. Copy and paste following CSS and click “Publish” or update button on top of the left sidebar.

    .single-episode .ppjs__episode-title {
        display: none;
    }

    Please inform if you need more help on this OR any other help is required.

    Thanks,

    Thanks so much. I added the CSS and the episode title disappeared. Thank you!

    I tried to do the same with the podcast_title but it would not disappear. So now I just need to remove that. Here’s the code I used:

    .single-episode .ppjs__podcast-title {
    display: none;
    }

    Should that work?

    Also, feature request: allow a small form factor player in posts. Trying to make the player very minimalist and small so it doesn’t take up a lot of real estate.

    Thank you!

    Hi there,

    That CSS is perfect. Just add important as mentioned below.

    .single-episode .ppjs__podcast-title {
        display: none !important;
    }

    Podcast player has many layouts. Did you try “List – Individual” layout? It should be very minimal for a single episode. If it is not working, just provide your design idea, we will seriously consider it.

    Inform if you need more help on this.

    Thanks,

    Excellent. The !important did it. Awesome!

    I tried the List – Individual and the others, but they no longer look like a player. The other player options bring back the episode title but no play button.

    When I click on the title (which is unintuitive), the player appears at the bottom. That’s cool, but I’m looking for a play button in the post itself. Something like this:

    https://theoverwhelmedbrain.com/sometimes-facing-yourself-is-the-only-way-change-can-happen/

    That player in the above post does have the title, but it’s nicely embedded in the play area and doesn’t take any space so I didn’t remove it. If your player had a similar option, or at least a size this small with the play controls, that’d be awesome.

    I made a test page for Podcast Player. Right now, it’s set to List – Individual:

    https://theoverwhelmedbrain.com/podcast-player-testing-page/

    As you can see, doesn’t appear to be a player at all.

    Grateful for your help.

    Hi there,

    Perhaps you have selected “Hide Episodes Featured Image” option (in Show/Hide Player Items). If you un-check this option, a play button will appear in list individual layout. Just test and give your opinion.

    Thanks,

    Ah, that put the play button back. Thank you! I made it even smaller by selecting List – Minimal. Great!

    The controls still appear at the bottom, but at least the play button is now visible in the post itself. Also, the episode title is back so it must override or ignore the CSS?

    The player I referenced earlier does the minimal look better (and keeps the controls in the player itself), but I do like having the fly-out or pop-out player option in Podcast Player too.

    Thanks so much. Stellar support.

    Hi there,

    We are regularly adding new designs based on new suggestions. I will add something similar to what you have suggested in future update (Not in the next update though, probably will add in version 4.1.0).

    Inform if you need more help on this.
